Sponge Posted November 20, 2010 Report Share Posted November 20, 2010 (edited) Randomly found this viewing NT's videos on his site. Since Neil doesn't use the forums that much I hope he doesn't mind if I go ahead and paste these off his site. Thought some people might be interested in this! After 8 years of green, adios!

Rusevelt Posted November 20, 2010 Report Share Posted November 20, 2010 Back end looks like a Koxx Hydroxx. Any idea on the geo as it looks very simular to the 2009 Pitbull? Bike looks good though i figured Deng would used a 120mm Headtube, and wtf is up with Neil's brake clamp? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob. Posted November 20, 2010 Report Share Posted November 20, 2010 Looks like a rockman , dropouts look strong.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam T Posted November 20, 2010 Report Share Posted November 20, 2010 wtf is up with Neil's brake clamp? I dont think anythings wrong with it. The clamps were desgined to have a intergrated booster, so that might be why it looks a bit odd? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Alty Posted November 20, 2010 Report Share Posted November 20, 2010 (edited) wtf is up with Neil's brake clamp? Heavily over-tightened booster integration system without the booster . Na, Im guessing hes bent those on a vice or something as bending those clamps by over-tightening the screw would be highly unlikely The new colour scheme is a welcomed change in my opinion. Powdered grey looks pretty awesome Edited November 20, 2010 by Jon Alty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ogre Posted November 20, 2010 Report Share Posted November 20, 2010 its not a zoo looks kinda like a rockman without uber paint to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan6061 Posted November 20, 2010 Report Share Posted November 20, 2010 Really like that! New graphics look sweet. What bars are they? Look pretty high! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hannah Shucksmith Posted November 20, 2010 Report Share Posted November 20, 2010 Forks the same colour as the headtube would be ultimate win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurence--Trials Posted November 20, 2010 Report Share Posted November 20, 2010 (edited) Really like that! New graphics look sweet. What bars are they? Look pretty high! Bars look kinda like echo's (what i have) could be wrong though. Bike looks very nice! I'm liking how it doesn't go higher kinda thing around the seatstay (right place? not 100% sure on what seat stays are.) like the 09/10 EDIT: love the head tube too, didn't notice the cut out before. Guessets look stronger to me too! I wonder why Edited November 20, 2010 by Laurence--Trials Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sponge Posted November 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2010 When I first saw it, it reminded me of one of those cheap and cheerful Zhi stocks. I seem to remember dual colours fading into eachother. Not a huge fan of this frame personally, but it falls in line with the modern trend these days. I'm sure it'll be pretty popular Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CalopS Posted November 20, 2010 Report Share Posted November 20, 2010 The logo over the colour fade looks sweet! I like it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CalopS Posted November 21, 2010 Report Share Posted November 21, 2010 Any idea on the geo as it looks very simular to the 2009 Pitbull? says +40 bb rise, 1090 long on his website. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andeee Posted November 21, 2010 Report Share Posted November 21, 2010 Reminds of if the 07 n 05 pitbull if they shared a passion. Looks good. i miss the green stickers =( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revelation Posted November 21, 2010 Report Share Posted November 21, 2010 I miss vertical dropouts! ( And its probably lighter/weaker too Ive always found strong Deng bikes to be a good alternative from Koxx/Rockman for bashing, but now Deng tries to build a Rockman.

Absolutely agreed. Although having a fresh-looking Pitbull is good, I'd prefer the philosophy of "+ 300g, + 3 years" lol EDIT: And I wonder why Echo don't update their website Edited November 21, 2010 by Zoo!Man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Rainbird Posted November 21, 2010 Report Share Posted November 21, 2010 You guys must be pretty sweet engineering specialists if you can work out how weak it is just from the wheelbase and BB rise... Don't forget that the current Piranha frame is only 1650g or something. Hardly a tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirt jumper jake Posted November 21, 2010 Report Share Posted November 21, 2010 (edited) Looks really nice, geo sounds pretty nice aswell. if the other zoo frames are anything to go off, this will be able to take a bashing aswell, least deng is making an effort to make it look good now EDIT: ahaha that bike is dengtastic!

You don't have to be an engineer to figure out the recent trend towards1500grams frames compared to past deng frames of around 2 kilos.

Monty99 Posted November 21, 2010 Report Share Posted November 21, 2010 (edited) i dont see a reason why this frame shlouldn't be as strong as the 2010 Control, which is surprisingly durable for it's wheight/price.
